Lotus Emira review. Driving Tour & Sport versions of Emira back to back but which is best?

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 มิ.ย. 2022
- I spent 5 days living with the new Lotus Emira V6 manual and what I was most keen to find out was the difference between the Tour and Sport chassis setup on the Emira. Lotus sent me both versions to drive back to back and in this video, I explain the key differences between them.

You know Harry is in love, when he starts cheering in the middle of the dis-likes!
He's going to get the Tour version.
Yea for the Uyghur genocide!! Let's arm China for the invasion of Taiwan!! Yea!!
Lol
Love the detail of Harry’s reviews & great insights re the Sport vs Touring set up. Lotus recognise the high regard we all have for Harry & love the fact they arrived with a 2nd car so he could test them back to back on same road to compare the set up. Thank you Harry & well done Lotus! 👏👏👏👏👏
Screw Chinese Lotus. Whoever supports the People's Liberation Army by buying Lotus products can go to hell.
He's a customer... and VIP
I think I might go with the new A110 over this
Smartest move Lotus could make, saves the car from a bad review. haven’t seen Harry so excited for yolks!
@@nigelha3699 seen the other reviews? Underwhelming to disappointing (Autocar and Evo)
This is what we want out of cars, not more horsepower, but analogue driving pleasure!
#AlpineA110 then - even then the chassis is mainly electronic but try it round the sweeps of Thruxton and you'll know what I mean. It makes the Cayman feel like what it is - a great marketing exercise but not as involving as the Alpine
a real analogue Lotus wouldn't weigh 1400kg
@@weallfollowmanutd 1400kg is the same as the Evora. This on the other hand is much more modern and comfortable, and still drives like a Lotus.
Perhaps the best looking car of all time. Whoever designed this is a genius.
The fact that Lotus hasn’t gone for technological overkill is a massive plus. This makes it a real sports car. Thank you Lotus. Take note Ferrari and Porsche.
Yeah, but Ferrari's and Porsches aren't sports cars - their Ego badges .. I know, I was in the PCGB for 6 years. In our local group there were only three people who drove them like they were intended - and only two of us who did that through the bends . .
So Fun fact from a recent former Lotus Sales rep(myself), I asked them the question about how the 2 different suspension set ups behave, they actually recommended that the ideal version is with the touring suspension. They said to really only get sport if your main goal is to track the car. Otherwise the touring set up is smoother on public roads but also handles like a true lotus!
There’s a lot of idiots who will insist on the Sport. I bet more than half of sales.
@@robinleach2390 They should have called is track instead of sport, then more would probably pick touring.
That's not particularly fun or insightful, all you do is refer to some "they" you never name.
@@johnsmith1474 🧐
That is what I'd be worried about - handling like a "true" lotus.
I can only imagine that on a day to day basis, you will be having infinitely more fun in this car than a modern Ferrari or Lamborghini on the same British Roads. Great review as always Harry, they have certainly hit the sweet spot for driving with this car
Those cars are just too big and too fast I reckon for the UK roads :) Evora = perfection.
This is exactly why I'm slightly concerned about its width, I suspect it has been designed for the US market.
@@Zadster considering he's in a left hand drive car from a British company I'd say so!
Until you hit a pot hole.
Ferrari 296 GTB looks like a lot of fun. But I'd have to try both to be sure!
Absolutely love it when Harry steps into a car he adores, his enthusiasm is like no other presenter👍🇬🇧
He's the best.
What's with the Butchers Apron flag emoji ?
.... and then buys one.
Love the idea of lotus making a come back. It was to much of a legendary brand to just be lost to history.
Seeing as you can't handle basic spelling, I'll make a wild guess and assume that you don't know that Lotus is now Chinese-owned. So anyone buying Lotus is directly supporting the Chinese Communist Party and People's Liberation Army and all the evil they do.
@@pistonburner6448 is your life that empty that you have to pick on my spelling mistakes like a bully at school. What is wrong with you when you think that a good thing to do put down a complete stranger now because my spelling is not perfect. Really take a look at yourself.
Agreed, more than sufficient tradition to warrant a top selling model or two in the 2020s!
Lucky not sold to the Chinese.
@@malcolmhardwick4258 It's 51% owned by Geely (China) and 49% owned by a Malaysian company.
I love how responsive Lotus were to Harry's questions about suspension set-up etc.... jumping in a Touring version and delivering it to him first thing the next day so he could compare them back to back... awesome. It shows they are connected to their target market, great job Lotus.
Well done Lotus, you have succeeded where Honda failed and have made a modern NSX 👍🏻
This is an underrated comment.
They did this already with the Evora as well.
@@EvoraGT430 Take your point, but I don’t think the Evora looked special enough to be comparable to the NA1/NA2 NSX. At least the Emira looks like a supercar!
@@AndyScotty82 Well that's subjective; I think the later Evoras look way better.
@@AndyScotty82 the Emira looks are criminally overrated. This looks like a toy.
Thanks, Harry. Now I need an Emira.
Interrupting yourself during the dislikes because of how much you like the thing was brilliant 😄
I can’t help but think it’s over-tyred, though. A lot of the magic in driving is where the car moves around at slower or more accessible speeds. That car looks like a guided missile
It will really look like a guided missile to the Taiwanese when the Chinese attack, funded by weak cowards in the west.
Needs nineteens these twenties look daft to me
This cracked me up! Lotus for you....you whinge, you put up with so much sometimes....and then you drive it and....:DD
Idk why but I always like over-tyred cars with slightly soft suspension, like an old French hatchback with cut slicks
well it's the track focused version so yeah... it's going to be over-tyred. But I agree with Visionist. @Not only do twenties not look that great but the cup2's for that are also insanely expensive and actually provide better grip on nineteens. And "insanely expensive" tyres don't really match the "somewhat affordable" vibe to the car.
The “steering chatter” part of this video is interesting. You can easily forget how much we’ve lost to electric racks in modern cars.
I've watched almost every Harry's Garage video and i don't think I've ever seen Harry seem to enjoy driving a car more.
Boxster GTS 4.0
Well, he has ordered one... 🤗
Watch the 182 Trophy video
Harry has got to be one of the best reviewists on earth. You come away at the end of the review feeling like you've actually driven the car, even though you've been nowhere near it.
Bravo 👏👏
Plenty of reviews out for this car at the same time but if theres one review I want to watch, it's Harry's!
I was concerned it was going to be too bumpy for the UK, but that Touring Pack seems to be the one.
It looks and sounds fantastic, and not too fast for public roads... Just brilliant!
Very nice to see Lotus back in the game with this new beast.
Having the bullet proof and brilliantly reliable Toyota engine is great as well as the superlative Bilstein suspension.
I imagine the execs at Lotus were high fiving each other after this review, Harry...and so they should.
I'd give it a solid 9/10 for a street sports car to own.
Don't forget the Eibach springs and Edelbrock supercharger, both excellent choices that should prove to be very reliable. I toured Edelbrock's manufacturing and test facilities, many years ago - very impressive.
Excellent. Really pleased to hear the Emira lives up to everyone's hopes. A potential modern classic.
I'd rather like one of these.
I was amused when Harry said "I've always wanted a Lotus". I imagine that the Elan might object to that statement. 😂
I thought that… didn’t Harry also own an Esprit?
He did good Sir
I think he said "I've always wanted to own a Lotus but (I've always had) a but on the interior and that's gone away with this edition".
I think he always wanted a modern lotus like the Elise or evora but just couldn’t live with them cos of the interior and it’s difficult to get in and out etc. this is much better put together.
LoL. Poor li'l Elan, hope it doesn't bite him for that someday. But he was thinking of a daily driver or tourer though. This is definitely a weekend tourer (perhaps not a GT).
Harry does the review we’ve all been waiting for! I’m glad that I ticked the Touring box. Build slot confirmed and looking forward to delivery later this year. Well done Lotus!
Good choice!
Amen to that, I don't think we have seen a proper new British sports car that is genuinely good since... Dunno, the Elise?
I bet Harry is re-configuring his as we speak.
To Tim from Emira: It won't be long, yeah, (Yeah) till I belong to you
Not. Jealous. At all. 😉
I love his enthusiasm. Well done Lotus.
I can't believe how good looking this car is!
The genuine joy you see in Harry's face is all the review I need.
I had an elise for about 3 years and loved that car, even with its "features". This Emira could well be a nice retirement present to myself.
Do it! 👍
@@PatrickLindemann22 70,000+ reason why I can't ATM. 😭
It will be a great retirement present to all the Uyghurs, Taiwan and eventually our children's freedom too.
@@pistonburner6448 how did you watch this video? On a phone or tablet manufactured in China? Perhaps a Chinese made laptop or TV?
The Emira is built in the UK, supporting UK jobs.
Who built your car? French, Germans or Asians?
@@davidhbunker Ah, again the least intelligent, invalid logic response. Your reply is so unintelligent, so false in logic and incorrect that I feel pain on your behalf.
And you're literally defending and helping the Chinese Communist Party, supporting their Uyghur genocide and preparations for invading Taiwan, you're supporting them and are helping them win against the West.
Harry, you enthusiasm for this car is palpable and infectious. Long may you continue to give us first rate entertainment. Thank you.
Excellent content as usual Harry, absolutely adore this machine. The delight from the driving experience really comes through in the vid, I cannot wait to try one!
It’s lovely to hear your live affair with lotus written large. Everything about the brand is charming and engaging. It make me proud to be British and an East Anglian!
im so happy about this. my brother ordered one, we are lotus nuts in our family. if its good enough for harry..its good enough for my bro..good tip the touring pack for the ride quality
I appreciate both the thoroughly professional nature of the review and the clear enthusiasm for a well designed motorcar...
Both are important and appreciated....
So fun to see you respond emotionally to the car. If you ever do a comparison this and the Cayman/Boxster would be fun.
Looks spot-on! I’ve not been blown away by anything from lotus since the S2 Elise - until this!! Love it!
First Alfa makes the guila quadrafoglio and now Lotus makes this we're living in the golden last few years of sports cars last couple decades
Love the quad
Harry, this review is inspiring and thoroughly enjoyable. I wish I had the money to buy one, but I'm glad I got to sit along side you and appreciate the car! The want is strong!
One of your best videos Harry. Your sheer enthusiasm for the Emira in Tour comes across loud and clear. This is now above Cayman GTS as achievable dream sports car for British roads and with that manual maybe above Alpine too!
The pure joys of motoring and not an electric motor in sight....perfect. Great review Harry.
Fantastic to see your unbridled joy fanging this gorgeous car round your local roads, Harry. The car seems to have unlocked your adolescent love of cars like no other I've seen you review, your reactions had me smiling and laughing out loud. Thanks for everything you do with this channel, it's great vicarious driving.
The impression I have is that this Lotus is as sorted as what you demand/expect from a Ferrari. Cudos to people at Lotus for making a car as good as this. Definitely a car I would want more (as a driver) than a Porsche. We need brands like Lotus. Definitely on my wish list
More so ,and you don't have to deal with a Ferrari dealer .
I think that Harry loves his new car!-I don't think I've seem him so excited.Glad he's also a realist and recognises the slight and few negatives-A good honest review.
Brilliant, Harry! Very excited waiting for mine now too, and very happy I chose Touring. Roll on August!
Excellent video Harry. Your enthusiasm is infectious... and loved the fact that you did the impromptu back-to-back, it was a really lovely touch. Well done to the team at Lotus for using that as an opportunity at such short notice.
Seems like a perfect sports car, especially the ' touring version ' .
Used to own an Elise, a great driving car the best I've owned but very loud and the panels would flap on the motorway etc. Still, I loved that car. Sold it and bought a seat Cupra R, I needed four seats :(
But this car really intrigues me looks like a mini Ferrari or McLaren 570s.
I had a MK1 Cupra years ago really fun car. Should have kept it longer.
If you needed four seats why did you only buy one ? 😁
Lotus or Chinese Geely? China are slowly hollowing out western companies and jobs. They cannot get traction with their own brands so they use western brands against us. This hollowing out will eventually empty out every single sector as they move all industries in house to China. Lotus knowledge will sucked out and moved to China. The staff in the UK will be used and tossed aside. By buying a Chinese car, unlike any other purchase, you are directly supporting a Chinese Communist Party owned company. All car companies in China are directly or indirectly owned by the CCP. You are supporting CCP design, technology, and engineering. China are a self proclaimed enemy of western democracy and free people, that may sound like hyperbole but it is manifestly true. They are a communist/totalitarian regime. Partnership is not a part of their thinking process. It is the cover they use to slowly dismember western economies. They do not want partnership they want control and ownership. This is and will increasingly bleed in to political control and eventually erosion of western freedoms. China simply cannot allow freedom of thought or speech, it is not only antithetical but an existential threat to their regime. They cannot afford to limit the restrictions on freedom in their own country as this is would be a constant pressure on their regime. So they need to extinguish freedom in as many places as possible. It is and innate need for all empires/civilisations to spread their model.
We are walking ourselves in to totalitarian control. If you think it seems too far fetched then you need to think deeper and harder. If you think this process will be benign, you are wrong. China will slowly tighten their grip on democracy, it is already starting to happen, they constantly require other nations to limit their speech. On the current course, in the not too distant future, your government will be controlled by China, directly or indirectly, you will not be allowed to change your government, and your government will impose every single decision handed down by China. You will not be able to protest or question these decisions. You and your children will grow up without any freedom for the rest of your/their lives.
As one example China forcibly sterilised and aborted their own women in the 80's, dragged them in to horrific surgeries, now the Uyghurs are being subjected to the same treatment. Fully charged directly support Chinese Communist Party controlled car companies. Even after they have seen China stripping democratic freedom from Hong Kong, or 1 million Uyghurs forced in to concentration camps, or China's support of North Korea's starvation of its population. Fully charged condone the Chinese regime. They think their agenda trumps that of freedom. Freedom (whilst imperfect) is the most important value we can hold, the alternative is a life of servitude. To have contempt for personal freedom as Fully Charged do is the highest form of immorality. All of the staff are accountable and deeply immoral people.
4 seats? Should have bought a tvr cerbera
Is the Toyota engine reliable?
I've never seen Harry so enthusiastically reviewing a car before!! - I still miss my Elise Sport 160
Hes got shares in lotus
Harry is a very shrewd investor...
Yup 14:50 😄
@@DaleSteel
I'd put my money into Pharma!Not in niche sports cars
Harry I love the way you really get on the throttle and rev out the car & get into the turns to see what it can do,. That helps us understand and appreciate it's performance. Great review!
Really felt the joy come through on this one, surely that's what it's all about. Thanks for the video Harry.
Love the Lotus Emira, looks amazing and sounds fantastic. Also great value for money and power. Excellent review , thank you Harry😁
Feeling very good about my decision to choose Touring spec!
Funny old world I have ordered sport pack and this review makes me happy about that. I guess that’s the point it covers both types of person!
Both of you have done the right thing, and that's buying an Emira in the first place! Congratulations
In all the years I’ve seen you test cars Harry, I have never seen you smile so much, as you did testing this Lotus!
The Lotus I want too! Sensational review, Harry. The joy just emanating from you like a lighthouse.
Been waiting patiently for this video!
Lotus have done a great job. Think I'll get one before they're banned. Manual V6 of course. Power, weight size, almost identical to my old F355, which I could never sell.
That’s interesting Richard, is it really the same size as a 355?
Enjoying Harry's appreciation for what a Lotus is about and the sheer enjoyment of driving a sports car for nothing other than fun. Certainly pleased I selected the touring version having seen Harry's review though!
Quite excellent report as Harry always delivers. Really spot on with the things a driver wants to know. He is one of us, the sporting automotive purists.
Can’t wait for ours to arrive next month!
Got the touring spec 🙏🏼
How are you liking it?
I find it quite amazing that Lotus managed to finish this car during the current day. Especially when you see the struggles of other companies like mclaren.
What do you think the Chinese Communist Party can't do, using western labour to help them achieve their goals? I mean they are able to get people like you to cheer for their cars and not care one bit about the genocide they're doing to the Uyghurs, or their plans to invade Taiwan...
Mclaren screwed themselves by over saturating the market. Mclaren released and manufactured way to many cars. Mclaren made their product a commodity. Lotus knows their audience. Lotus understands supply and demand. The majority of Lotus that are created are ordered by people that want them....unlike Mclaren - just building shit willy nilly and sending them to dealers without any demand of them.
Lol, who says Lotus will not struggle? How do you know how much money they've had to sink in this car already, and if they'r ever going to make a cent of revenue on it?
It's all just a vehicle of invading the western market for the Chinese Communist Party anyway.
Chinese money
It's a rehash of the Evora. Chinese money is going into electric powertrains...
great car and another fantastic review. Harry is so happy to find the Lotus hes been waiting for . Just ACE !
Not often you see Harry be that enthusiastic about something. It must be fantastic.
Fantastic, passionate review Harry. I’ve been a quiet fan of the channel for about a year now and feel compelled to jot down my thoughts on the latest Lotus.
Am I the only person who thinks what Lotus has achieved with the Emira represents everything that’s wrong with the direction of McLaren, Ferrari and Lamborghini in their constant pursuit of ever more horsepower coupled with the lack of a manual gearbox…?
If I was a teenager the only poster on my bedroom wall would be the Emira…
Lotus. I salute you…🫡
Do yourself a favour and put the poster up anyway.
Wonderful to see Lotus producing such a special car, lets hope Lotus becomes the company it should always have been, incredibly successful.
The review I've been waiting for! Have a FE V6 manual Touring being delivered in July and seeing your outright joy and obvious excitement has got me even more excited about delivery!!!! LOVE IT! Thanks Harry!
Congrats!
Always love the review by Harry, nothing else even comes close. Chris Harris is ok, Top Gear on a Sunday is painful....
Hear, hear, and I'm shocked, they still make Top Gear? (I did try watching it after the enforced departure of Clarkson et al, but it was like having a vegetarian steak, pointless and horrible)
I always thought the Evora was a leap forward back in 2009, and the early editions had everything: bespoke interior, comfort, practicality, and Lotus handling.
But the Emira has all that and is a properly up-to-date for 2022, with the best of the older cars: analog feelings and driving experience. Great review, and a great car.
Harry took the Chris Harris Emira review to the next level by questioning the dampening on the sports set up and this was answered by the touring set up delivered the next day by a Lotus engineer. As an Evora 400 owner I was baffled by a few of Chris’s comments on the Emira in what seemed like a lotus miscalculation. Great journalism Harry. Lotus must be relieved too 👍🏻😉
Thanks Harry, been waiting for the drives. I ordered mine with the touring set up and was a bit worried. Sounds like for me I made the right choice. Can’t wait for it to arrive.
Touring pack def way to go, had an evora n/a and it was just perfect and probably one of the best handling cars i have ever driven in terms of both comfort, way it makes you feel and how it handles bumps and corners. Im sure there are faster cars in the corners than the Evora N/A but they would undoubtedly shake your fillings out.
They will certainly shake the Uyghurs' fillings out. And many other organs.
Totally agree. Lotus are in danger of making their cars too stiff.
I also had an evora n/a and although I agreee with your sentiment it's also true that it wasn't great for the track, almost scary at times. So I'm glad they have these options now.
I agree, for every day use you don’t want suspension that is so hard it makes it uncomfortable. I like cars where you can manually stiffen the suspension by pushing a button.
This review is why I love Harry's channel. Such a thorough description of the car. I'm head over heals for an Emira, going back to the reveal last July. So much so, I plan on going to my local dealer group that just acquired the brand (when they open next year) and putting a deposit down for one. But mine won't be for a while as I want a car once Lotus opens up bespoke color choices. Make mine Gulf Blue/Sky Blue with orange rockers/mirror caps, V6, Manual, Touring setup. A "Gulf livery" version if you will. It will be a long wait for extended colors (2024/2025), but well worth it. 🙏🙏
I've loved the Gulf livery ever since I made a model of the GT40 at school. Only the Gold Leaf livery on an Elan comes close, but it's a different thing.
Hey man, you did this right. Appreciate the review of both suspension setups. It was very informative.
Thanks Harry, that was a brilliant review and has only compounded my excitement for this car!
Seems it has everything a driver could want. Steering feel through hydraulic power steering, manual transmission, long wheel travel, good looks, decent engine/intake noise. Quite a balanced and thrilling package as far as I can tell by watching.
For a Lotus it could be lighter but hey, as it is you get a nicer interior for that extra weight.
Ace review.
Just like an Evora 🙂
And less road noise for extra weight is worth it
@@robertdonaldson9880 in a Lotus? Absolutely not.
@@nichtgefunden404 Agreed. It's too heavy to be a Lotus
Hi harry hope you’re doing well I have to say I absolutely love the Lotus Emira the V6 manual so exciting thanks you so much harry for the video keep up the great work thanks you
Great to see you so enthousiastic
It really comes across
Nice one Harry, keep them coming
Harry your reviews are biblical…. Unlike other boring look at me channels. Keep the content coming
I quite like the updated interior. They didn’t try to jam in tech for no reason, well done! The slightly disappointing part is the 6800 rpm redline, that’s about a thousand too low.
Great review, Harry.
I’m an out and out techie. I’ve loved computers since they were a thing and have always spent way too much money on the latest shiny thing. However, I find a lot of tech in recent cars infuriating to use and largely useless. All I want is the ability to connect my phone and use CarPlay and that’s about it. I’m sick to death of having to go onto a screen and then dig five menus deep just to turn something on or off. It’s dangerous and thoroughly unfriendly.
CarPlay and physical buttons are what you want and it looks like Lotus has hit the nail on the head. I know where my next bonus is going.
I don't mind the tablets and digital dash, but I really hate the design of the dashboard with how the binnacle cowl slopes away from the driver instead of towards the driver. Is it just me? It doesn't seem to match the organic, curvy exterior styling (and it's just weird, how many cars have a binnacle that slopes away?).
Great review of what promises to be one of the great sportscars of the end of the ICE age. A fitting end to Lotus’ fine history of combustion engined sportscars.
Love the sound in the cabin.
It's wonderful to see Lotus, and many other manufacturers, maintain the heritage of their brands.
A really modern and highly desirable Lotus.
Harrys excitement oozes through the screen . a true drivers car
Thanks Harry! What a beautiful car. You should have put it on your scales, see how much it weighs!
He showed you how much it weighs on the spec sheet. His scale is broken btw.
Wow!! A sports car that look like a Supercar for 60k starting , is great business by Lotus. The fact they're is a 2 year waiting list say's it all really. Expecting to see loads about.....9/10
You can undoubtedly tell you just ADORE the Emira. It evokes a huge smile on your face and you seem to be just purely proud of Lotus
Great looking and sounding new car! Lotus is back providing, once again, the fun of real driving !
Another 10/10 review! I hope the Emira does well for Lotus. It seems like they've put the driving experience FIRST instead of (irrelevant) raw performance stats. If I had the money, I'd absolutely order one.
So you hope for big success to the Chinese Communist Party and the PLA? You're loving that Uyghur genocide, huh? You want them to get nice and armed up for the upcoming invasion of Taiwan, do you?
They always did put that first.
I'm very pleased about that too! Concerningly, elsewhere, the car is already being criticised for it's performance stats. It seems a lot of people don't get it, and would prefer some twin-turbo dual-clutch thing. :(
Hate to correct Harry but I have a launch edition Evora and it does have armrests. Including one in the middle of the car. I'm not saying it's practical but it did have somewhere to put your arm with a small pocket for sunglasses, wallet etc. It also has a glove compartment and BACK SEATS. So it's basically a practical car 😂😂😂
Correct.. i had evora too.
I think he was referring to the GT version he drive, which had the door cards of the GT410 with no arm rests. The earlier and final cars did have them indeed.
I've never seen sir harry so happy and vivid. I think the lotus brought the joy boy out. stay blessed sir
So good to see a good new Lotus and such an excited Harry!
Enjoyed this review as it’s such an important car for Lotus. When is your own car due to arrive? Looking forward to you reporting on a big road trip in it eventually as I get the impression that this can be a semi practical GT as well as a sports car.
Love this car, a half price Maserati MC20. Would love to be in a position to own of these. V6 manual with track pack etc. Only thing I would say is… certain angles, looks like it’s been in a crash due to the bonnet haha
I'm so glad to see how much you like the car. The first time I saw this and read about it I knew it was going to be special. I haven't been this excited for a new car in awhile. Hoping for an opportunity to own one.
Never seen you so excited Harry. It looks beautiful and sounds amazing 👍.
Careful, you missed an edit with the speedo on camera in this one Harry... How lovely do these things look? So clean and simple in the lines, non-fussy cabin, etc.
it was Km/h, your honour...
Not crazy about the hood vent design... but overall WoW..I'll have the V6 manual....amazing car.
Love Harry’s review of both cars, I can’t wait to see the review of the AMG version against the 6 cylinder
Best review on the Emira! 18:27 sums up the driving experience on this car for me. Thanks Harry.
Seems a bargain and instant classic. Saw one the day, looked superb in the flesh.
Harry what's going on with the Lancia Fulvia Zagato? Its been months since the last update!
I love how your videos make us feel like we can all afford to buy the cars that you review Harry 👍🏻🏴
Brilliant review, can't wait to see this car in person and see the future of Lotus
I hope they sell enough of them that I can find one easily in 10 years
Might want to pixelate the bit where you're seen doing 138km/h 😉
Spectacular car just about every way. I think this about as fired up I’ve seen Harry about any car….bravo.
Brilliant video, great to see your enthusiasm, Lotus has produced something very special! What a car!!
So good looking! Love the looks, blue and yellow in particular. Such a nice take on sports car as well, reasonable price, tour or sport spec. But 1400 kg...even a Tesla Roadster ("Lotus EV") is only 1300.
Many safety and crash requirement changes since 2008
@@thestoicwhinger Fair enough. Different perspective: a Model 3LR has more hp, 4WD, creature comforts for 4-5 adults, huge luggage space, same crash standards, plenty of steel in the structure and of course a huge lithium battery. And it only weighs 452 kg more. If petrol powered is so heavy anyway, it would be cool to see a Lotus 2 seater EV.
1400kg is really not bad for a sportscar of this type IMO.
